Could it be that a traumatic brain injury starts to have rapid mental deteriation 10-12 years after the brain injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: A condition called post traumatic encephalopathy is getting a lot of attention. This is more likely from repeated episodes of head trauma as opposed to one traumatic brain injury.
